📋Overview
Promacta is a medication that helps increase platelet production in the body. It is commonly associated with conditions where platelet counts are abnormally low, such as chronic immune thrombocytopenia and certain cases of hepatitis C-related thrombocytopenia. Promacta works by stimulating the bone marrow to produce more platelets. It is used in situations where low platelet levels pose a risk of bleeding or interfere with other medical treatments.
